I take off the helmet and shake my hair out. [color=FFF79A]“That was much more enjoyable.”[/color] I tell Avery with a smile. [color=FFF79A]“And I’m sure your abdomen appreciated the break.”[/color] I want to ask him if we could make this a weekly thing - going to that diner and then the Garden of the Gods - but I hold myself back. We were making too good of progress for me to ruin it all.

[color=F7941D]“Can I walk you to the door?”[/color] I offer. It’s not like we’re far from the entrance, but it feels weird to just kind of… drop her off like this. I want to open her door for her and watch her blush when I lean down into the vehicle.

[color=#9B111E]“There’s a ceremony?”[/color] I worry my bottom lip. Did it have to be done in front of other people? Am I just going to embarrass Caden by being his mate? I conjure up an image of me swatting the thoughts away mentally. Caden had already assured me that I could be his mate, that it’s not dependent on [i]what[/i] I am. I still feel nerves prick at my mind. [hr][hr]
